Introduction

Background of the study

Sleeping is a natural process that almost all animals do, including us human.

It’s been around for a long time and helps our bodies and minds stay healthy and

balanced (Xie, Tang, et. al 2019). Humans require a certain amount of sleep each

night to function effectively. Eight hours of sleep is the recommended amount for

adults (Okano et. al, 2019). Lack of sleep causes a person to experience sleep

deprivation. The amount of sleep that each person needs to feel re-energized and

perform at their best varies depending on their age. It’s critical to get adequate sleep

each night. Additionally, some experts think that sleep allows the body to mend itself,

meaning that skipping sleep might be threatening to one’s health (Bandyopadhyay

and Sigua, 2019). Lack of sleep can hinder you from thinking clearly and keeping

your emotions at an even keel. Studies show excessive sleepiness can hurt work

performance, wreak havoc on relationships, and lead to mood problems like anger

and depression (Pathak N., 2021).

Getting enough sleep helps us learn, remember information, and make

rational judgments. It also enables our brains to function in the social environment in

which we live. An individual’s brain is less capable of processing new knowledge and

has trouble remembering what they have just learnt when they are sleep deprived

(Dowdell and Clayton, 2018). Given the importance of sleep for attention and

memory, teenagers’ learning potential and academic achievement may be impacted

by the quantity or quality of their sleep (Lee et al., 2015).

1
The purpose of this research was to explore the effects of sleep deprivation

and how it affected towards the students’ academic performance at Talisayan

National High School. Additionally, to look into possible solutions that could be

provided to students who were suffering from sleep deprivation if the hypothesis of

this study was further proven. The researchers believed that there was a significant

relationship between sleep deprivation and academic performance.

The significance of this research study highlighted the importance of

understanding how sleep was affected the human body and exploring solutions to

address the widespread issue of sleep deprivation. Also, the significance of this

study was that the possible results may benefited students who were experiencing

sleep deprivation which were hindering their cognitive learning and processing, by

gaining an amount of information on how to deal with it could make a positive

difference.

This study primarily benefits the students. By knowing the causes why they

experienced sleep deprivation and how it affected their academic performance,

participants would be better equipped to make informed decisions about their sleep

habits. Additionally, the findings of this research could be applied by readers to their

own lives. Finally, the researcher would gain significant knowledge about the causes

of sleep deprivation and potential approaches to tackling it. This information could

then be used to inform future research and interventions aimed at improving overall

sleep health.

Statement of the Problem

This study aims to answer the following questions:

1. What are the causes of lack of sleep?

2. What are the effects of lack of sleep towards the academic performance?

3. What is the relationship between sleep deprivation and academic performance of

students?

Conceptual Framework

Independent variable Dependent variable

Lack of Sleep Academic Performance

The figure above shows the relationship between the independent variable

lack of sleep and the dependent variable academic performance.

Hypotheses:
There is no significant relationship between lack of sleep and academic

performance

There is a significant relationship between lack of sleep and academic

performance.

Purpose of the Study

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of sleep deprivation

on the academic performance among the grade 12 HUMSS students at Talisayan

3
National High School. This research would explore the specific ways in which sleep

deprivation impacts students' grades, and the relationship between sleep deprivation

and academic performance. By examining these connections, the researchers aimed

to contribute to a deeper understanding of the importance of sleep for academic

success and the well-being of students. While academic performance was important,

the researchers aimed to understand the deeper effects of sleep deprivation on how

students thought and learn.

Significance of the study

This study aims to provide valuable information about the effects of sleep

deprivation on students’ academic performance, concentration, and overall cognitive

functions. Also, the researchers aim to understand the negative effects of sleep

deprivation by providing solutions to help enhance students' academic performance.

This study's insights could contribute to wider discussions about healthy sleep habits

for people of all ages. By highlighting the connection between sleep and academic

performance, this research can contribute to promoting healthy sleep practices and

potentially improving overall health and well-being. The beneficiaries of this study are

as follows:

For the students, not all students are aware of the effects of experiencing

sleep deprivation on their academic achievement. They might experience it without

understanding that it had an impact on their academic achievement. This study will

raise their awareness of the situation, enabling them to make their own decisions

about how to apply the information they have been provided.

For the teachers and parents, the research will aid in their learning about

many factors that they should take into account when assisting a student or a

4
teenager. Parents can encourage and enforce healthy sleep routines to support their

children's learning and overall well-being. Recognizing the challenges that students'

face in maintaining healthy sleep, teachers can foster a supportive classroom

environment that encourages healthy sleep habits and acknowledges the importance

of adequate rest.

For school institutions, students’ education occurs in educational

establishments. Setting for evaluating intellectual achievement. It is also a location

where a few things that have an impact on a student's academic achievement

happen. Therefore, this study will aid educational institutions in having a better

understanding of the effects of sleep deprivation on the academic success of their

students. It will be helpful for a school institution to have an effective plan that may

employ these aspects to better support a student and their academic performance,

whether it may be a favorable influence or a negative effect on a student's academic

performance.

For policymakers and public health officials, the research can contribute to

broader discussions about sleep deprivation and its importance for public health

across all age groups. By highlighting the connection between sleep and cognitive

function, this study can influence policymakers and public health officials to develop

and implement initiatives that promote healthy sleep practices and improve overall

well-being within communities.

For future researchers, this research could be used as reference material

since the issue has a wide range of interesting features that could be investigated.

They might use it as a guide.

Scope and delimitation

This research focused on investigating the relationship between slept

deprivation and the academic performance of Grade 12 HUMSS students at

Talisayan National High School, which was located in Barangay San Jose,

Municipality of Talisayan, Misamis Oriental. This study would have three objectives,

which were to establish a clear connection between lack of sleep and academic

performance, investigate the cognitive processes affected by sleep deprivation, and

identify the challenges students faced in maintaining healthy sleep routines. Surveys

Chapter II

Review of Related Literature

This chapter examines existing research studies relevant to the current

investigation, which examines the relationship between sleep deprivation and its

impact on student academic performance. This section explores existing studies that

have investigated the effects of sleep deprivation on students to their overall

cognitive performance. The researchers identify and discuss relevant concepts that

provide a framework for understanding the relationship between sleep and academic

performance. This existing knowledge serves as a foundation for the current

investigation, which focuses specifically on Grade 12 HUMSS students at Talisayan

National High School (TNHS).

According to Short M. A., Weber N., Reynolds C., et al., (2018), teens' ability

to maintain attention appears to be affected by sleep deprivation in ways that are

significant to multiple normative developmental aspects, such as their capacity for

focus and classroom instruction. Previous research has shown a link between poor

academic performance in children and adults and the amount of sleep that people

report as delayed or inappropriate sleep, waking up too late, especially on

weekends, and daytime sleepiness (Jalali R., Khazaei H., et al, 2020). While getting

enough sleep has a beneficial impact on grade point average, which is a measure of

academic success, getting too little sleep has an adverse effect on students'

academic performance (Mehta K. J., 2022). Learning gets difficult and we become

forgetful when we don't get enough sleep. Moreover, sleep deprivation puts

8
thousands of students at risk worldwide, which can lead to poorer academic

performance and challenges at work (Merenheimo, 2018). Students who get too little

sleep find it difficult to stay alert and energetic during the day, which makes them

less likely to stick to academic and extracurricular schedules (Chen L., Chen J.,

2019).

According to Maheshwari G., Shaukat F. (2019) Pakistani medical students'

academic performance suffers as a result of their poor sleep quality. While in Ghana,

Accra's medical students frequently experience dysfunction during the day and poor

quality sleep. The quality of sleep was significantly positively correlated with

academic performance as reported by the sleeper (Lawson H. J., Wellens-Mensah J.

T. et. al, 2019). Numerous biological and environmental factors may impact the

circadian and homeostatic regulation of sleep at this stage of life. A significant portion

of this population suffers from chronic sleep restriction and/or irregular sleep-wake

cycles as a result of insufficient sleep. Reduced learning capacity and compromised

daytime functioning are linked to poor sleep quantity and quality, according to studies

examining the impact of varying sleep–wake schedules on academic achievement

(Alfonsi V., Scarpelli S., et al. 2020). On the other hand, better grades were

correlated with sleep duration and quality for the month and the week prior to an

exam, but there was no relationship between test performance and sleep measures

on the one night before an exam. A quarter or so of the variation in academic

performance was explained by sleep measures (Okano K., Kaczmarzyk J., et al.

2019). Daytime fatigue, irregular sleep patterns, and sleep deprivation are

particularly common among understudies in schools and colleges. Undergrads are

especially vulnerable to the negative effects of sleep deprivation and daytime

sluggishness, which can include decreased grades, increased risk of subpar

9
academic performance, learning loss, mood swings, and increased risk of alcohol

and drug use (Khemka P., Dhanuka P., 2020). In general, sleep and academic

performance in school are related. Sleep deprivation has been linked to inattention

and lack of focus in the classroom. While some studies find no correlation between

sleep length and quality and academic performance, the majority of research has

found that longer, higher-quality sleep is associated with improved academic

performance, including study effort and grades.

According to Lewis L. (2021) the benefits of sleep for brain health are

surprisingly numerous. Sleep deprivation affects memory and focus in the short term

and can cause neurological dysfunction or even death in the long run. In today's

world, sleep disorders and sleep loss are major contributors to poor sleep quality.

The underlying mechanisms of the relationship between sleep and metabolism

indicate that stress activates the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis.

Maladaptive alterations in the HPA axis are linked to sleep disorders and sleep

deprivation, which can result in neuroendocrine deregulation (Hirotsu, C., Tufik, S.

Andersen, M., L. 2015). Stress is an adaptive reaction meant to bring the body back

to balance. The hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis is activated in the classical

neuroendocrine stress response, which modulates many physiological aspects,

including the wake-sleep cycle (Martire V. L., Caruso D., 2020). However, according

to Alotaibe A., Alosaimi, F., et al. (2020) the body, mind, memory, and learning all

depend on sleep. Nonetheless, there hasn't been enough discussion in the literature

about the connection between stress, academic performance, and the quality of

one's sleep. Long-term use of the internet for leisure was strongly correlated with

less sleep, but there was no conclusive evidence of this relationship with internet use

10
for research (Kim S. Y., Kim M., 2018). The conclusion of this study is that sleep

deprivation has a greater impact on students’ academic performance.

Research Methodology

Research Design

The study design combined descriptive and correlational methods. The

descriptive method addresses "what" questions, providing a detailed picture of sleep

habits and the perceived impact on students' academic performance. This approach,

even for a familiar topic, could reveal new insights and enrich the understanding of

the issue. Additionally, correlational analysis was used to examine potential

relationships between sleep deprivation and aspects of academic performance, such

as concentration. By investigating these connections, the researchers aimed to

identify any significant associations relevant to the study.

Population and Sample

The population of the study was composed of Grade 12 students under the

Academic Track (HUMSS) enrolled in Talisayan National High School-Senior High

School, San Jose Talisayan Misamis Oriental. There were 71 respondents out of 87

students enrolled in the academic track. The researchers used Slovin's formula

(n=N/1+Ne2), where n was the sample size, N was the population size, and e was

the margin of error.

11
The sampling procedure that the researchers used was simple random

sampling by using the fish bowl technique which was randomly selected the

respondents in Grade 12 enrolled in the academic track.

Instrumentation

The research instrument was a self-administered survey with a clear

introduction explaining the study's purpose and guaranteeing confidentiality. After

following the instructions to read carefully and select the most fitting answer,

participants provided basic demographic information that was answered in the

survey questionnaire. The research instrument was divided into three sections,

namely A, B, and C. Section A consists of the causes of lack of sleep. Section B

contained the effects of lack of sleep on the brain, and lastly, Section C consists of

questions about the relationship between deprivation and the academic performance

of students. The questions in the survey involved 15 closed-ended questions. All

questions utilized a Likert scale ranged from Strongly Agree (SA), Agree (A), Neutral

(N), Disagree (D), to Strongly Disagree (SD).

Data Gathering Procedure

This quantitative study investigated the impact of sleep deprivation on Grade

12 HUMSS students through a survey. The survey targeted current HUMSS students

to gather data on their sleep habits and academic performance. The researchers first

developed the survey instrument. To ensure its validity and reliability, the researchers

have it reviewed by their teacher. Once it was approved, the researchers would

reproduce enough copies for all participants. In parallel, the researchers prepared a
12
letter requesting permission to conduct the survey and deliver it personally to the

school principal. The survey began with a brief explanation of its purpose and

assured participants of confidentiality. Demographic information was collected to

confirm participants were Grade 12 HUMSS students. To facilitate completion, the

researchers explained the survey details in person during the distribution of the

questionnaires and the request letter. The questionnaires were collected on the

same day they were distributed. Finally, after collecting the data, the researchers

analyzed, evaluate, and explain the results using the statistical treatment utilized in

the study.

Statistical Tool

The frequency count was used by the researchers to compute the data

collected from the respondents. The researchers would analyze the responses from

sections A to C by calculating the percentage. For each question, the researchers

determined the percentage of respondents who chose the option of Strongly Agree,

Agree, Neutral, Disagree, or Strongly Disagree.

CHAPTER IV

Results and Discussion

This chapter delves into the findings of our survey investigating the impact of

sleep deprivation on the academic performance of Grade 12 students. The survey

aimed to answer three key questions: (1) What are the causes of lack of sleep? (2)

What are the effects of lack of sleep towards the academic performance? (3) What is

the relationship between sleep deprivation and the academic performance of

students? The data collected through the questionnaires will be analyzed to address

these questions. The null hypothesis proposes that there is no significant relationship

between sleep deprivation and academic performance. Conversely, the alternative

hypothesis suggests a significant relationship between sleep deprivation and

academic performance. The following sections will present the survey results,

discuss their implications in the context of existing research, and interpret the data

that was gathered. Table no. 1 showed the verbal description and explains how to

interpret the data results. It showed what each range of numerical data means in

words. Higher scores indicate stronger agreement with the statement being

measured.

Table 2. Causes of lack of sleep

Based on the table above, this suggests that these factors are prevalent

causes of sleep issues among grade 12 HUMSS students. Studies have found that

students who report getting insufficient sleep, going to bed late or having irregular

sleep patterns, sleeping in on weekends, and feeling tired during the day tend to

perform worse academically (Jalali R., Khazaei H., et al, 2020). In comparison, with

a mean response of 4.2, long-term internet use was perceived as having the

weakest influence on sleep among the factors studied. This is further supported by

the finding that only 31 out of 71 respondents which corresponds to 43.66% agreed

that long-term internet use contributes to sleep problems. According to Kim S. Y.,

Kim M. (2018), there was no solid evidence linking long-term recreational internet

use to reduced sleep, although there was a substantial correlation between the two.

This implies that students perceive sleep habits to have a stronger association with

sleep quality than internet usage.

Table 3 shows the effects of lack of sleep on academic performance. Based

on the data gathered, this is evidenced by the mean response of 4.4, indicating a

strong level of agreement. Furthermore, 35 out of 71 respondents corresponding to

49.2% agreed with this statement, reinforcing the importance of quality sleep for

academic success. According to Lee et al. (2015) stated that, while sleep is crucial

for attention and memory, both the quantity and quality of sleep may have an impact

on a student's ability to study and their academic achievement. Sleep deprivation

has an impact on our lives, making learning difficult and making us forgetful.

Furthermore, poor sleep habits received the lowest mean scores 4.1, indicating a

weaker perceived influence on academic performance. This is further supported by

the finding that only 36 out of 71 respondents (50.7%) acknowledged the negative

impact of poor sleep habits, which included difficulty sleeping, late wake-ups on

weekends, and daytime tiredness. According to Icon R., Khazaei H., et al. (2020),

insufficient sleep, more short-term sleep, staying up late, and early wake-up times

have all been linked to poor academic performance and learning ability. These

findings suggest a general consensus among students regarding the importance of

sleep for academic success.

Table 4 shows the results of the researchers’ survey, which included

statements about the relationship between sleep deprivation and the academic

performance of students. Table 4 indicates that poor night time sleep quality was

viewed as the most critical factor affecting students' physical and mental health, as

well as their academic performance. This is reflected in the highest average score of

4.4. Additionally, 37 out of 71 respondents corresponding to 52.11% agreed with this

statement, further supporting this conclusion.According to Schmidt RE and Van der

Linden M., (2015), students’ poor academic performance has been linked to sleep

deprivation. Based on Table 4, the importance of sleep for the body, mind, memory,

and learning received an average score of 4.1, which was the lowest mean score

compared to other factors. This suggests it may have been viewed as having a

slightly lesser impact on students' health and academic performance, even though

36 out of 71 respondents (50.7%) agreed with the statement. According to Alotaibe,

A., and Alosaimi, F. et al. (2020), the body, mind, memory, and learning all depend on

20
sleep. This suggests a widespread understanding among students about the

importance of sleep for their academic performance.

Chapter V

Conclusion And Recommendations

This chapter presents the researchers' findings and recommendations based

on the survey data collected. The chapter focuses on the identified issues related to

sleep deprivation and its potential impact on the academic performance of Grade 12

HUMSS students at Talisayan National High School. The believed that there is a

significant relationship between sleep deprivation and academic performance.

The majority of respondents reported experiencing daytime tiredness,

irregular sleep patterns, and lack of sleep. These findings align with previous

research highlighting the detrimental effects of sleep deprivation on cognitive

function, memory consolidation, and overall academic success. The strong

consensus among students regarding the importance of quality sleep for academic

achievement further emphasizes the need for promoting healthy sleep habits.

Students clearly recognize the negative influence of poor sleep on their ability to

21
focus, retain information, and perform well in school. This self-awareness is a crucial

first step towards establishing positive sleep hygiene practices. Finally, the survey

underscores the students' understanding of the vital role sleep plays in overall well-

being. The majority of respondents agreed that sleep is essential for not only

academic performance but also for the proper functioning of the body, mind, memory,

and learning. This comprehensive understanding highlights the students' potential to

prioritize sleep as a foundation for holistic success. In conclusion, the findings of this

study provide compelling evidence for a significant relationship between sleep

deprivation and academic performance among Grade 12 HUMSS students at

Talisayan National High School. These results underscore the importance of

promoting healthy sleep habits and educating students about the critical role sleep

plays in academic achievement and overall well-being. Future research directions

could explore the implementation of sleep hygiene interventions within the school

setting and investigate their effectiveness in improving sleep quality and academic

outcomes.

Recommendations

Based on the findings of this study, the following recommendations are

proposed for various stakeholders:

1. For the Students

1.1 Create a consistent sleep schedule, aiming for 8-9 hours of sleep per

night, even on weekends. This helps regulate the body's natural sleep-wake

cycle, promoting better sleep quality.

22
1.2 Develop a calming bedtime routine that winds down the mind and body

before sleep. This could include taking a warm bath, reading a book, or

practicing relaxation techniques like deep breathing or meditation.

1.3 Ensure the bedroom is cool, dark, and quiet. Avoid using electronic

devices like phones or laptops before bed as the blue light emitted can disrupt

sleep patterns.

2. For the Teachers

2.1 They should teach the students about the importance of sleep and the

importance of maintaining the habit of sleeping early.

2.2 They should encourage the students to take care of themselves while

learning which includes sleeping early and avoiding staying late.

2.3 They should give students a reasonable work load that allows them to

learn, be productive, and rest at the same time.

3. For the Parents

3.1 Prioritize sleep as a family by establishing consistent sleep schedules for

everyone in the household. This reinforces the importance of sleep for

children.

3.2 Talk openly with your children about the challenges they face regarding

sleep. Offer support and work collaboratively to address any underlying

issues.

3.3 Enforce screen-free time in the bedroom before bed. Encourage

alternative activities like reading or listening to calming music.

23
4. For the School Institutions

4.1 Implement educational programs for students and parents focusing on

sleep hygiene practices and the connection between sleep and academic

success.

4.2 Provide access to counselors or sleep specialists who can offer

personalized advice and support to students struggling with sleep problems.

4.3 Designate quiet spaces within the school where students can rest during

breaks or free periods, promoting relaxation and potential power naps.

5. For the Policymakers and Public Health Officials

5.1 Fund research initiatives to explore the long-term benefits of delaying

school start times on adolescent sleep patterns and academic performance.

5.2 Develop educational campaigns promoting healthy sleep habits for

teenagers, highlighting the impact on mental and physical health, as well as

academic success.
